Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Illustration

This multi-award-winning course will give students a thorough grounding and understanding of the commercial applications of illustration. The aim is to develop creative thinkers and visual communicators who aren’t confined by the conventional boundaries of the industry. At Hertfordshire they encourage students to think imaginatively to develop engaging and purposeful ideas, and to execute them beautifully. The First Year is about core skills and finding the right pathway. Teaching guides students to be creative, generate ideas and solve problems, with workshops in software, typography and printmaking. Later, they focus on professional projects, emphasising commercial constraints and expectations. They also explore areas like digital design, interaction and motion graphics. In the Final Year students will produce a high-quality portfolio.
